Said farewell to my last hotel, it never was much kind of abode Glasgow town never brought me down when I was heading out on the road Carlisle city never looked so pretty, and the Kendal freeway's fast Slow down driver, wanna stay alive, I wanna make this journey last Helen (Helen) Hell on wheels Ain't nobody else gonna know the way she feels Helen (Helen) Hell on wheels And they're never gonna take her away M6 south down Liverpool, where they play the west coast sound Sailor Sam, he came from Birmingham, but he never will be found Doin' fine when a London sign greets me like a long-lost friend Mister motor won't you check her out, she's gotta take me back again Helen (Helen) Hell on wheels Ain't nobody else gonna know the way she feels Helen (Helen) Hell on wheels And they're never gonna take her away Got no time for a rum and lime, I wanna get my right foot down Shake some dust off of this old bus, I gotta get her out of town Spend the day upon the motorway, where the carburettors blast Slow down driver, wanna stay alive, I wanna make this journey last Helen (Helen) Hell on wheels Ain't nobody else gonna know the way she feels Helen (Helen) Hell on wheels And they're never gonna take her away Say bye-bye! Bye-bye! One, Two, Three, Four
